The Atlanta constitution. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1885-19??, 1887-10-04
Meeting of the New York Democratic State
Committee.

SARATOGA, n. V, September 27.-The day
opened cool and foggy, but with the promise of
sun and warmth later. The summer visitors
have all fed and the democracy literally have
possession of the town. There is scarcely
lady to be seen on the streets. The hotels on
the east side of Main street are all closed, and
tho street is, therefore, divided, comparatively
a deserted village on one side from q Joyous,
rollicking, active community on the other.
Hotel accommodations have been somewhat
limited, and there is every evidence in the
faces of hundreds OF persons that they have
been strangers to beds, for one night at least,
and there is not wanting a look of pale eXhaus-
ton and anxiety born of the weary hours of
midnight discussions OH contested seats and
earnest efforts to settle family quarrels without
an appeal to the convention.
Mr. Raines's illusions to Hill and Cleveland
We're greeted with applause. Somebody called
for three cheers for Hill, but they were not
given. His condemnation of the foreign pro-
prietorship of land and an alluSion to General
Grant were also applauded. In regard to the
national administration, the chairman said:
The general movement of the federal administra-
ton has been along the lines of larger interests
committed to its charge and the results shown by
large economies, by the assertion of public rights
and investigation, and the punishment of public
wrongs justify the popular appreciation of its wise
purpose. II the FEDERAL administration has been
slow TO defend itself against the battling
trcachery ofits Servants of republican iealty, and
has permitted the inevitable changes of civil service
to come by development under its observation of
rascalities or ineiciency among republican officials
yet there has not failed to he present everywhere
loyal purpose to find its new agencies among the
capable and true men Of its own party. 1t has
moved with prudent caution i'll these matters of
subordinate moment TO the fortunes of party
and the welfare OF the pcOp.e while the graver
Germs of public administration have been vigorously
adjusted tC the standards furnished by democratic
doctrine With establishment of the conf
dence OF the people IN the stability OF
the system of finance favored by the democratic
party and worked out BY It's administration. there
has grown apace a desire TO continue the methods
ofdein eracy to their llexemI LITIGATION in the
duct Of the government We lcoS upon general
revival of trade and an increase Of factories in all
paris OF the country; upon restored commercial con
tidence between the sections recently dislustful;
upon enthusiastic greetings of northern thrift and
enterprise among southern communities and wide
spread good feeling with which the soldier and citi-
zen grasp hands above the embcrs of the stres of
quarter of century as signal justification of the
return TO power OF the great party whose appeal is
for union of hearts and union of hands in the
up-5uilding of our common country.
CONVENTION HALL, SARATOGA, n. Y, Sep
tcmber 2S.-The day opens dark, gloomy and
cold. The committee on contested seats did not
adjourn until this morning, and it is said left
things pretty much in the same shape as re-
commended by the state committee.

! Is. Governor DOrsheimer presented the re-
port OF the committee on resolutions. Before
the platform was read the following resolu-
tons were adopted:
